  Descripción

  We are Val (she/they) and Connie (she/her), sharing a life together full of play and hard work. Val is a counsellor, bodyworker, yoga teacher and aerial artist and Connie is a conscious dance facilitator and DJ, herbalist and flow artist. Guests must have positive attitudes about queer people and we welcome LGBTQ+ visitors. We also have two cats, Puma and Panther, who will watch over your stay.
  
  In our vibrant life there are many projects we could use a hand with. We live with the seasons and the work that we need help with changes from one month to the next. Depending on when you are here, you might be involved in gardening, firewood, landscaping, or carpentry projects. Maybe harvesting berries and veggies, maybe planting them. This year we’ll be doing some building projects, continuing to grow a bounty of organic veggies, and digging trenches for power lines.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  We live pretty simply with the land and from the land. We may be harvesting shellfish or wild mushrooms, making herbal medicines from garden plants, canning jams or pickles. We offer a glimpse into a way of life on the edges of things where wellness and quality of life are more important than consumerism. On Cortes Island we offer non-profit dance and art events to the community. As our guest, we would love to take you along to those events.

  Algo más...

  On Cortes Island there are many beautiful beaches and forest walks, lots of nature but not many conveniences or public transportation. It takes two ferries from Vancouver Island to get here so it’s best to be prepared for a bit of an adventure. Cortes Island is a little community and very welcoming to visitors who make the effort to get here. As our visitor we will show you some of the magical nature spots that Cortes Island is famous for.

  Val works online as a counsellor. We have good internet, however in the winter months it can go out for a day or two at a time due to winter storms, You can get around this by having a large phone GB plan and creating a hotspot from your phone. Be prepared to do this if the power goes out.

  Espacio para aparcar autocaravanas

  We have a beautiful pad at the back of our homestead, nestled in cedar trees, for campervans and campers. Currently there is no water or hydro service to the pad, however that is one of our projects for the springtime. You can also use the kitchen and bathroom in the house.
